Giants are unused, over-sized mobs that look like zombies. They currently have no purpose other than decoration.

Drops

Giants drop 5 experience when killed.

Spawning

Giants require a light level greater than 11 and less than 8. This effectively makes it impossible to make them appear naturally or through spawners.

Commands

Giants can be spawned using commands such as /summon giant.

Behavior

Giants are close to 12 blocks tall, and use a six times enlarged zombie model.

Giants currently have no AI. The consequence of this is that they always face south when summoned and stay that way, never wandering, turning their head, chasing the player, or responding to damage except for taking knockback. Their viewing direction can only be changed with commands.

Giants are in the Xbox 360 and Xbox One editions, although they require external modifications for their egg to be placed in the player's inventory.

Data values

See also: Chunk format

Giants have entity data associated with them that contain various properties of the mob. Their entity ID is giant.

|Output= Fire Charge, 3
|type= Miscellaneous
}}

=== Bartering ===
[[Piglin]]s may [[barter]] 1 fire charge when given a [[gold ingot]].

== Usage ==
[[File:Natural Fire Charge.png|200px|thumb|Dispensing Fire Charge]]

Fire charges can be used as ammunition for [[dispenser]]s, or as a substitute for [[flint and steel]].

When used, it instantly places a [[fire]], similar to flint and steel. The fire charge is consumed in the process. It can prime [[TNT]], light [[Nether portal|nether portals]], [[Campfire|campfires]], [[Candle|candles]], [[Cake|cakes with candles]] and [[creeper]]s{{only|JE}} like flint and steel.

When a fire charge is fired from a dispenser, it shoots a [[small fireball]].

Added giants.
Giants acted like any normal hostile mob – they'd walk towards the player until they were touching them. However, the giant couldn't "touch" anything unless standing on top of it, making it hard for them to do combat against opponents.

A '''milk bucket'''{{fn|Known as '''Milk Bucket''' {{in|java}} and '''Milk''' {{in|bedrock}}.}} is a [[drink]] obtained from {{Control|use|text=using}} a [[bucket]] on [[cow]]s, [[mooshroom]]s and [[goat]]s that can be consumed to clear all [[Effect|effects]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Harvesting ===
Milk buckets can be obtained from [[cow]]s, [[mooshroom]]s, and [[goat]]s by pressing {{control|use}} while looking at them with an empty [[bucket]].

=== Mob loot ===
A milk bucket has a chance of dropping from a [[wandering trader]], if the trader is killed while holding it.{{only|java}}

== Usage ==

Holding {{control|use}} with a milk bucket starts the drinking sound and animation. {{IN|java}}, the animation is shown only in first-person camera mode.

When consumed, milk immediately removes all status [[effect]]s from the [[player]]. [[Fire]] is not a status effect; therefore, drinking milk doesn't extinguish a burning player.

The benefits of area status effects granted by [[beacon]]s and [[Conduit Power|conduit power]] are restored almost immediately in Bedrock Edition and after a few seconds in ''Java Edition''.

=== Mooshrooms ===

{{control|use|text=Using}} a bowl on a [[mooshroom]] turns the bowl into [[mushroom stew]] or [[suspicious stew]].

* {{in|be}}, bowls are actually more fuel efficient than [[stick]]s.

This can be useful when the player only has access to Nether wood types, which cannot be used as fuel.

The '''camera''' is an [[entity]] that is capable of capturing and storing images. {{IN|edu}}, it works together with the [[portfolio]] item to create collections of [[photo]]s.<ref>https://education.minecraft.net/support/knowledge-base/using-cameras-portfolios/</ref>

== Obtaining ==
The camera can be obtained in the [[Creative inventory]] in ''Minecraft Education''. It can be obtained either by NBT editors, inventory editors, or glitches in Bedrock Edition.

To get the block form of the camera in Bedrock Edition using an NBT editor, you need to set the item name of the block in the inventory slot (<code>name:</code> ) to <code>item.camera</code>, then you need to add a compound tag called <code>Block</code> and inside of that put the int tag <code>version: 18040335</code> and the text tag <code>name: minecraft:camera</code> into the block compound tag. For the usable "[[spawn egg]]" form of the camera, you only need to set the item name of the block in the inventory slot (<code>name:</code> ) to <code>camera</code>; you do not need to add the block compound for this form of the camera. 

== Usage ==
Using a camera from the [[inventory]] captures a first-person screenshot. It can also be placed, creating a camera [[entity]] that can track the user, and take pictures from the camera's perspective. Photos that are taken using the camera appear in the [[portfolio]].

Close-up snapshots of an [[item]] on the ground can be taken by holding the Shift key while right-clicking.

Photos that are taken with the camera block are stored in <code>%localappdata%\Packages\MinecraftUWP_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\screenshots</code>.

=== Future ===
At the Minecraft [[Pocket Edition]] panel at [[MineCon 2012]], as well as one of [[Johan Bernhardsson|Jbernhardsson]]'s livestreams, it was stated that future plans include trying to have a proper use for cameras, perhaps an easier way to take screenshots and share them with others.<ref>{{ytl|YMhyX_lKWV4}}</ref> In the BlockTalk Q&A, the camera was briefly mentioned as part of a broader "sharing" theme planned for {{el|be}} in the future.<ref>{{ytl|Ruf6tvqsD84}}</ref>
It later got implemented into {{el|ee}}, using the camera to make screenshots and share them in a special book.

== Issues ==
{{Issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* A camera prevents a [[Book and Quill]] from working. Attempting to craft it or obtain it by commands gives a regular book instead, due to non-implementation of photo attaching to written books.
* The camera can take a screenshot, which appears a bit smaller with a thick paper outline having cuts on its edges, making it look like an old photograph.
* This feature is hidden from the Creative inventory and from the /give command item menu.

A '''fishing rod''' is a [[tool]] that casts a bobber used to [[Fishing|fish]] in [[water]] or to hook and pull [[Mob|mobs]], [[Item (entity)|items]] and some [[Entity|entities]] towards the user.

|type= Tool
}}

=== Fishing ===

Enchanted fishing rods can be obtained as "treasure" [[item]]s from [[fishing]], and unenchanted ones as "junk" items.

=== Trading ===

Journeyman-level [[fisherman]] [[villager]]s sell enchanted fishing rods for 6 [[emerald]]s.
The [[enchantment]]s are the same as the ones obtained from an [[enchantment table]] at levels 5–19.

=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|enchanted-fishing-rod}} 
{{notelist}}

=== Carrot/warped fungus on a stick ===

If a [[carrot on a stick]] or a [[warped fungus on a stick]] is used to the point of zero durability, it becomes a fishing rod again.

=== Mob loot ===

{{IN|java}}, the [[drowned]] mob has a 3.75% chance of spawning with a fishing rod equipped.
{{IN|bedrock}}, naturally-spawned drowned has 0.85% chance to spawn with fishing rod, while converted drowned has 1% chance to spawn with it.
If killed, they have an 8.5% chance of dropping this fishing rod. That chance increases by 1% for each level of Looting applied to a weapon (up to 11.5% chance). The dropped item is damaged and never enchanted.

== Usage ==

=== Fishing ===
{{main|Fishing}}

Fishing rods can be cast into water. After a short period of time, a stream of bubble particles approaches the fishing rod. If the rod is reeled in once the particles "bite" the bobber, the player obtains a fish, junk, or possibly a treasure item. If the fishing rod was in the player's hand and is no longer, the fishing bobber [[Entity|entity]] despawns, unless the fishing rod to the off-hand or it's been swapped with another fishing rod{{Cn|Cn=Research on the way fishing rods behave when you swap rod or have two equipped (one in the main and one in the off hand) needs to be done}}.

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage|Fishing Rod, Damaged Fishing Rod}}

=== Hooking mobs and other entities ===
{{see also|Fishing#Fishing rod durability}}

The fishing rod can be used to hook [[mobs]], [[Item (entity)|items]]{{only|java}} and some [[entities]], and even [[player]]s. The fishing rod can then be reeled in, dragging the hooked object toward the player without dealing damage. Reeling in a [[mob]] or entity costs 5 points of durability, and reeling in an item costs 3 points. Reeling a mob pulls it toward the player with a speed of {{frac|1|10}} the distance between mob and player.

Besides mobs and items, entities that can be reeled in include: 
* {{ItemLink|id=oak boat|Boat}}s
* {{ItemLink|id=oak boat with chest|Boat with Chest}}s
* {{ItemSprite|Minecart}} [[Minecart]]s of any type
* {{ItemLink|Armor Stand}}s
* {{EntityLink|Shulker Bullet}}s
* {{EntityLink|Fireball}}s
* {{EntityLink|Small fireball}}s
* {{EntitySprite|TNT}} Primed [[TNT]]
* Any [[falling block]] such as {{EntityLink|Sand}}, {{EntityLink|Gravel}}, {{EntityLink|Dragon Egg}}s, {{EntityLink|Concrete Powder}}s, {{EntityLink|Scaffolding}},  [[Snow]] on [[Bedrock Edition]] or {{EntityLink|Anvil}}s

Some entities can be hooked, but cannot be reeled in: 
* {{EntitySprite|Horse}} Mobs riding/being ridden by other mobs (in Bedrock Edition, the hooked mob dismounts)
* {{EntityLink|Painting}}s
* {{EntityLink|Item Frame}}s
* {{EntityLink|id=leash-knot|Lead}} knots
* {{EntityLink|End Crystal}}s
* {{EntityLink|Shulker}}s

Attempting to reel in said entities still costs durability to the rod.

The rest of the entities cannot be hooked at all: 

* {{EntitySprite|egg}} Thrown [[egg]]s
* {{EntitySprite|snowball}} Thrown [[snowball]]s
* {{EntitySprite|ender-pearl}} Thrown [[ender pearl]]s
* {{EntitySprite|eye-of-ender}} Thrown [[eyes of ender]]
* {{ItemSprite|splash-potion}} Thrown [[potion]]s
* {{ItemSprite|bottle-o'-enchanting|附魔之瓶}} Thrown [[bottles o' enchanting]]
* {{EntitySprite|dragon-fireball}} [[Dragon fireball]]s
* {{EntitySprite|Wither Skull}} [[Wither#Wither Skull|Wither skull]]s
* {{ItemSprite|firework-rocket}} [[Firework rocket]]s in flight
* {{EntitySprite|arrow}} [[Arrow]]s in flight
* {{EffectSprite|particle-speed}} [[Lingering Potion#Area effect cloud|Area effect cloud]]
* {{EntityLink|id=experience-orb|Experience|XP orbs}}

Using it on a [[villager]] lowers the player's popularity and causes any naturally-spawned [[iron golem]]s nearby to attack.

=== Fuel ===

A fishing rod can be used as fuel in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1.5 items per fishing rod.

=== Other usage ===

The hook can also be used to activate wooden [[pressure plate]]s or [[weighted pressure plate]]s.

=== Enchantments ===

A fishing rod can receive the following enchantments:
{| class="wikitable col-2-center"
|+
!Name
!Max Level
![[Enchanting|Method]]
|-
|[[Lure]]<ref group="note">Lure levels above V don't work.</ref>

|{{Inventory slot|Anvil}}
|}
{{Notelist|note}}

A fishing rod with the [[Mending]] enchantment has infinite durability if used for fishing only. The rod incrementally repairs itself using the experience gained each time a player reels in a fish, even if starting from nearly 0% durability. Players wearing damaged [[Mending]] armor have a lower average rate of repair, because the mending mechanic can ignore damage to the rod while repairing armor instead. [[Unbreaking]] III can nearly guarantee that the rod does not break, unless it's already at low durability.

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
*The maximum distance the [[player]] can get between the bobber and themselves is 33 blocks.
*[[Skeleton]]s can be pulled into their own [[arrow]]s.
*When casting the rod into a [[portal]], the bobber may stick to it like a normal [[block]], go through and travel in [[the Nether]], or stop on the next block behind the portal.
*If the player stands directly in front of a column and casts the line onto a block above the player, the line falls downward.
*If the bobber hits a [[painting]], the painting breaks.
*The player can get into [[bed]] after casting a line, and the line remains in the water until the player wakes up and reels it in.

A '''portfolio''' is an [[item]] that can save [[photo]]s taken with a [[camera]].<ref>https://education.minecraft.net/support/knowledge-base/using-cameras-portfolios/</ref>

== Obtaining ==
Portfolios can be obtained in the [[creative inventory]] or through the {{cmd|give}} command.

== Usage ==
[[File:Portfolio Interface.png|thumb|upright=1.5|The portfolio interface]]
Once a photo has been taken using the [[camera]], it appears in the portfolio. Once equipped, right-clicking brings up a two-page book of photos the [[player]] has taken, in chronological order. Captions can be added below each picture. Pressing the "Export Portfolio" button creates a .zip file with all photos as JPGs in a specified folder. The portfolio is also used to load custom items in [[Minecraft China]].

===Mob loot===

==== Skeletons and Strays ====

[[Skeleton]]s and [[stray]]s have an 8.5% chance of dropping a normal or enchanted bow on death when killed by a [[player]] or a tamed [[wolf]]. 

The chance of dropping a bow is increased by 1% per level of [[Looting]], allowing up to an 11.5% chance of dropping. 

The chance of being enchanted depends on the [[difficulty]], whether it is normal or hard. The enchantment level is equal to enchant level 5-22. 

Bows of [[skeleton trap]]s are always enchanted at level 5 to 23. The exact level depends on [[regional difficulty]], as on Easy it is always a level-5 enchantment.

==== Illusioners ====
{{exclusive|java|section=1}}

[[Illusioner]]s have an 8.5% chance of dropping an unenchanted bow when killed by the player. The chance of dropping a bow is increased by 1% per level of Looting, allowing up to an 11.5% chance of dropping. 

=== Trading ===

Apprentice-level fletcher [[villager]]s sell bows for 2 [[emerald]]s as part of their [[trading|trade]]s.

Expert-level fletcher villagers sell enchanted bows for 7–21 emeralds as part of their trades. The enchantment level is equal to enchant level 5–19.

=== Fishing ===

Bows have a chance of being caught by [[fishing]]. When caught, the bow may be damaged and contain random [[enchantment]]s equivalent to a level 30 enchantment from an [[enchanting table]], including treasure enchantments like [[Mending]].

[[File:Steve aiming with Bow.png|150px|right]]
[[File:Alex aiming with Bow.png|150px|right]]

Bows can be drawn back by {{control|using}} them. In order to use a bow, the player must have at least one [[arrow]] in their [[inventory]] or be in [[Creative]] mode. The arrow that is shown inside the bow always looks like a regular arrow, regardless of what kind of arrow is actually being shot from the bow.<ref>{{bug|MC-87685||Drawn bow texture does not reflect arrow that will be shot|WF}}</ref>

When drawing a bow, the display zooms in slightly. Charging the bow to its maximum causes it to visually shake as an indicator. Releasing the button shoots an [[arrow]]. Drawing a bow can be canceled by switching to another hotbar slot while holding use.

While the bow is being charged or remains fully charged, the player is forced to move at [[sneaking]] speed, unless they are riding a [[horse]], [[minecart]] or [[boat]], or flying with [[elytra]]. It is not possible to [[Sprinting|sprint]] while charging a bow or holding a drawn bow. When the bow is released, normal motion resumes although any prior sprint is cancelled. Sneaking while drawing the bow makes the player move even slower.

If an arrow hits another player, the player that shoots the arrow hears a high-pitched "ding" sound.{{only|je}}

Fully charged shots launch critical arrows which have a trail of [[particles]] behind them and deal up to <math display="inline">\left ( \frac{3x}{2} \right ) + 2</math>damage, where <math>x</math>is the damage after any enchantments. The listed values below describe maximum damage from a bow with no [[Power]] enchantments, assuming the target is at a distance where drag and gravity are negligible. However, the critical damage is likely to be more around 8-10; critical damage is added at a random value between <math>x</math>and <math display="inline">\left ( \frac{3x}{2} \right ) + 2</math> and it is rare to have minimum or maximum values. The damage dealt can ultimately be less than the maximum damage if the arrow slows down after being shot. 

{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center" data-description="Shot base damage by changing time"
|-
! Charging time
! Maximum attack damage
|-
|{{ItemSprite|Bow|text= '''0.1 s'''}} (no charge)
|{{hp|1}}
|-
|{{ItemSprite|Bow|text= '''0.2–0.9 s'''}} (medium charge)

|{{hp|6}}
|-
|{{ItemSprite|Bow|text= '''1+ s'''}} (critical)
|{{hp|11}}
|-
|}

The game stores the damage of arrows even in values with a decimal point. For example, it is possible for a critical arrow shot to cause damage values such as 6.4. In this cases of a broken value, the game can round up or down and store the amount for subsequent damage sources.

Any projectile thrown by the player is under the influence of momentum in current versions of ''Minecraft''. Naturally, the player's movement speed can be modified under a number of circumstances, affecting the ballistic trajectory of projectiles, and as a result, the damage inflicted by arrows.

In [[Java Edition Combat Tests]], to avoid sniping, arrows shot from fully-charged bows become non-critical if held drawn back for longer than three seconds. Instantaneous effects on tipped arrows are scaled by 1/8, just like the duration of other effects. For example, Instant Damage I arrow will deal an additional {{hp|0.75}} magical damage.

Damage caused by the arrow is not affected by the [[Strength]] effect.

[[Endermen]] cannot be shot using an arrow, because the arrow either disappears as the enderman teleports, or it gets deflected. Even while immobile, the enderman is immune to damage from arrows. However, an arrow shot from a bow enchanted with [[Flame]] can ignite the enderman.

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage|Bow, Damaged Bow}}

=== Enchantments ===

Bows can receive several different [[enchantment]]s and have a base enchantability of 1. Bow enchantments have no effect on [[arrow]] speed or the distance it travels. In [[Bedrock Edition]], if a bow is enchanted with any level 1 enchantment, it always gets Power I.{{verify|This used to be in the trivia section. Not valid in Java Edition.}}

{{Reflist|group=n}}

=== Fuel ===

A bow can be used as [[fuel]] in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1.5 items per bow {{in|java}} or 1 item per bow {{in|bedrock}}.

== Arrows ==

{{main|Arrow}}

As in real life, a flying [[arrow]] in ''Minecraft'' is affected by gravity. Its vertical speed is modified by one block downward every second, resulting in a {{w|Parabola|parabolic}} flight path. An arrow slows down if shot through water, reducing its damage to near zero unless brought back into the air or otherwise given momentum.{{Only|Java}}

Arrows that hit solid [[blocks]] become stuck and can be retrieved, unless the arrow was shot by a bow [[enchant]]ed with [[Infinity]], a player in Creative mode, or a mob.

An arrow shot through [[lava]] ignites, giving it the effect of the [[Flame]] enchantment, igniting any entity it hits. If not extinguished, the fire inflicts up to {{hp|4}} damage. Although a [[wither skeleton]] does not spawn naturally with bows, if it holds a bow then it also shoots flaming arrows.

On impact, an arrow can trigger a wooden [[pressure plate]], [[target]] block, [[wooden button]], or [[tripwire]]. Arrows cannot trigger stone pressure plates or stone buttons.

The player can choose the type of arrow to shoot based on its location in the inventory. Arrows in the off-hand, or the selected hotbar slot if the bow is in the off-hand, are prioritized first. If there are no arrows in the off-hand or selected hotbar slot then the arrow closest to [[Inventory#Slots|slot 0]] is selected.

Arrows shot by bows in [[Bedrock Edition]] has a slightly higher range than arrows shot by bows in [[Java Edition]].

{{History||June 14, 2009|link=https://notch.tumblr.com/post/123343045/my-vision-for-survival|[[Notch]] discussed how bows and [[arrow]]s would work in [[Survival]] mode: "Bows and arrows can be made out of wood. To use it, select the bow from your inventory and make sure you’ve got some arrows. Click in front of you, and an arrow goes flying using real physics. To actually HIT something, aim above it."}}
{{History||0.24 SURVIVAL TEST|The [[player]] did not need a bow to shoot arrows. Instead, {{Key|Tab}} was used to fire arrows. However, arrows still had to be collected to shoot. Launching arrows this way was much slower than the bow that now fires them.}}

{{History|||snap=20100122|[[File:Bow JE2 BE1.png|32px]] Added bows as item with changed texture. The right mouse button can be held down to fire in rapid succession. Each [[arrow]] deals {{hp|4}} for each hit. They fly in a [[wikipedia:Trajectory of a projectile|ballistic trajectory]] affected by gravity and drag in air or water. They travel approximately 15 [[block]]s when fired parallel to a flat plane. Arrows also have a maximum range of around 52 blocks when fired at a 38 degree angle on a flat plane.
|Bows often fail to interact with objects, but instead shoot. This is due to the fact that shooting arrows is an instantaneous action.
|At this point, bows have no durability, and can essentially be used infinitely.}}

14w06aArmor on giants is now rendered. This originated from a bug in 14w05a which caused all mobs to render worn armor. In repairing this bug, Grum allowed giants to render armor.
Giants' AI was removed.
Legacy Console Edition
TU1CU1 1.00 Patch 1Added giants, which cannot be spawned without modifying the game.

Issues

Note that giants are an unsupported mob.

Issues relating to "Giant" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there.

Trivia

  • Since giants need to have a light level both less than 8 and greater than 11 to spawn, they don't spawn from monster spawners. However, this spawn condition can be bypassed with a custom spawner, if it attempts to spawn an entity with valid spawn conditions riding a giant.
  • If you name a giant using a name tag, its name will appear inside its head.
  • Giants share the exact same model as the zombie. This means that changes made to the zombie model change the giant's as well.
  • Notch removed the giants spawning capabilities because "they are too overpowered". He did not remove them entirely because "they are just too cool to remove".
  • If a giant is riding a minecart, it hovers way above it.
  • If a mob is riding a giant, unless it's a very large slime or magma cube, a ghast or the ender dragon, it is completely hidden from view by the giant's head.
  • Giants are damaged by potions of harming despite the fact that they use the Zombie model which is an undead mob.
  • Giants have the same hurt sound as the player does.
  • The giant's head and torso are not included in its hitbox, meaning hitting it in those areas will not hurt the giant.
  • Iron golems are hostile towards giants.
